Welcome

I’ve been writing stories “inside my head” since I was a young kid walking to elementary school. Some of those stories were as short as the length of the trip, some would take several days to finish. When one was done, I’d start another, but I never wrote them down, not even as an adult.

In 2002, I took the plunge and signed up for a 10-week Creative Writing Workshop. That decision changed my life. In 2003, I left the comfort of corporate life to become a fulltime freelance journalist and editor. It hasn’t always been easy, but I’ve never looked back.

Today, I’m the bestselling (and award-winning) author of two mystery series, several short stories, two books on publishing, and the publisher of five multi-author mystery anthologies. My current work-in-progress, along with fellow author Amanda Capper, is a true crime book based on the unsolved murder of Helen Grier in October 1937. A Fatal Affair: The Murder of Helen Grier will be published by Superior Shores Press in October 2026. Follow our journey on Instagram or Facebook as we research and write this story.
